I'm beyond angry after watching the yfk video. It's dawned on me that I not only purchased, but have further invested in through stub store purchases, a defective product ripe with cheaters. I'm now scrolling my memory of games over the past month realizing that so many times I was being cheated. Games where I would have a lead against an opponent who seemingly wasn't a great batter, only to appear like they handed the controllor over to a pro and smacked many perfect/perfect HR's in a row to take the victory in the late innings.
There are two troubling aspects to SDS's recent cheating warning. First, if they had much ability to police this they would've already been doing it. It's now clear this has been going on or a long time (which they've known) and it's only reached this point because of the proof people like yfk has offered. Second, they explicitly say they rely on community reports. We are WAY past the point of "community reporting" our way out of this. THIS IS SDS's issue to fix, not the customer who in good faith purchased a product they had been told was going to be fair, healthy, balanced, etc. I don't even want to get on anymore, because what's the point? Grind mini seasons when someone else just had a bot do it all night long? Play ranked when you have a good probability of someone using software to crush you? No thanks
